Original Item: Only One Available. Totally inert per guidelines provided by the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) this is a rare German WW2 30mm Anti-Personnel rifle grenade known as a Gewehr Spreng Granat 30 round, offered in very good condition. The steel body is painted yellow and features a spring-loaded bakelite fuse and screw off bakelite base. Not Available for Export.
The inside of the bakelite base is stamped 1944 and ehj for 1944 manufacture by Gebr. Spindler Betr.-KG., Koppeldorf.
The side of the top housing has additional markings: AZ5071 .. 44 wa 1381, for 1944 manufacture.
The yellow painted body is in very good condition, with along all of the original yellow paint still present. It even has a black inspection stamp with a Reichsadler inside.
The grenade would be used with a propellant cartridge and Schießbecher (shooting cup) grenade launcher to direct the projectile. Unlike many grenade launchers, the German launcher had a short rifled barrel with a caliber of 30 mm, which engaged the rifling ridges on the bottom of the bakelite grenade housing. The spin was thought to result in a more regular trajectory.
Overall a very nice complete Gewehr Spreng Granat 30 round, well marked and ready to display!
